One Way Mirror

You don’t know me
I haven’t shown myself
Aggravated
Souls together, shelved
Hesitating
Yet, I forced so much
Now, the reflection
Isn’t whom I recognize
You don’ know who I am
Where I am
Who are you?
If you knew, would you stay?
That’s the question!
Don’t move
Don’t think
Don’t point the finger at me
And I don’t know you
‘Cause you haven’t shown me
So, we’ll leave it at that
‘Cause that’s all we see!
Now that I stand
Here in front of the mirror
Days away from the end
The end of what I held dear
I ask myself if I was true
To who I knew myself to be
Mirroring my own reflection
A reflection that I don’t recognize

Changing (2007)
03:24

|
Daybreak, and I feel you falling
As your words speak your last breath
Given time, we could have something
How long ago did you decide?
That it’s my time
My time to know
And I’ve been changing
Trained all my thought
What have I done?
Crying, I heard you inside
The tears speaking from your soul
Some time ago I could have loved you
How long ago is all that now
Forsaken by this
Don’t let it touch me
Now I’m much better
You don’t need to know
I’ll do without you

Break Of Darkness

Underneath the break of darkness a light begins to shine
Still, I can’t find my way, no matter how hard I try
I’m giving up today; I can’t see it any other way
I’m drifting too far away from the place that I once stayed
I can’t stand the pain inside
No matter how hard I try
I can’t break from the darkness
Underneath the veil of sorrow I remember why
Through all my years of deprivation I fasted to shine
Growing back towards the place that brought me into being
Psychedelic growth bursting stardust into me
I’m willing to sacrifice
All the moments of my life
Just to break the darkness
Shine always through
The break of darkness

Faceless

Your religion’s a patriarchy
Established supposedly to strengthen the weak
Sure got ‘em convinced
Manipulated and chastised
For monarch’s benefit
In his pockets all the money goes
Self proclaimed, ordained
Said god sent you to spread the message to us
But what makes you more worthy
To render the word when we could all
Proclaim deities anointing us
Your religion’s misinterpreted
Only understood
By each way singular individuals view it
Mostly
Written as a method to chastise women
Billowing over to
Instill shame in us all
The only ones who burn
Are the hypocrites
Self proclaimed interpretation
For one language isn’t used by all
So how concrete is continuity
When the script is modified
To tame humankind’s supposed impunity
Supposedly
